What did you say @themarkymark?
You wanna create a Hive Minecraft server?
Say no more, take all my money Mojang, I am even getting 2 copies of the game so I can play with my dear wife @lionmom, I've been waiting for this moment my whole life!!!
Setting Up
After following the tutorial that made it look super easy, barely an incovenience, we decided to make it a game with @lionmom, and see who can install first.
I won!!! Yes!!! Well...Technically, she managed to join the server before me, because I kept on being timed out, but we didn't really well define what was the "win", which for me was installing the game, and for her, joining the server.
Eventually we realized that her internet was better than mine, weird because we have the same laptop that we bought for the kids homeschooling, so I decided to join first, and wait for her.
I nearly passed out while waiting, she kept on shouting "heeeeeeeeey, are you awake", while I was starting to drool haha.
Am I getting old?
Maybe, shut up hahah...
The Hall
While I was waiting for my half, I decided to have a stroll around the spawning area.
It looked so good, I enjoyed the big HIVE logo, I don't know for how long they've been working on the server, but this was super impressive!
It's really looking so slick, of course I've enhanced the pics a little, but even in game, I was super happy with the way it looked.
The statues at the entrance looked badass!
I waited on that bench for a while
You can if you wish, being randomly teleported on the map, but we wanted to stay together.Eventually, @lionmom and I were reunited, at the entrance, it was time to go on an adventure.
The Adventure
Either we go East
Or North?
Watch out not to get burnt by the fire!!!
We eventually decided to go North, and find the perfect place to settle, and claim our building.
The server is set is Survival mode, which we are quite used to, I told my wife "I got this".
We use to play together and create entire cities, with villagers and golems. We never finished the game, because we were more interested in building cool stuffs!
Of course, the 2Ghz kids laptops with 8G RAM is a little bit laggy, so I am planning on getting a new laptop soon, the mods really changed the game so much, it looks amazing.
The lag that I had, unfortunately make it difficult to fight against the undead, but we could get a feel to the game once more.
The first spot we chose to settle, was this one, unfortunately the night came abruptly, and I died. @lionmom survived the onslaught, and I quickly returned to the kill zone to unlock my grave, a new game mechanic that is brilliant, I wasn't familiar with it.
Thanks to the admin MalReynolds that helped me getting unstuck on respawn, I was inside the walls haha.
Safe Haven
I saw these 2 beautiful trees, and I know it was the perfect spot to make our home!
Quite frankly, I was starting dosing off a little, and it was only 11pm, oh my goodness, the younger me would make fun of the older me!
We started digging the area, and get the camp ready.
It's too make sure I can teleport to the same location tomorrow. I forgot to claim the land, so I hope the trees are still there tomorrow!!
Then, I (allegedly) went AFK and sat on the couch, to pass out. I left @lionmom alone in the game, not knowing what to do. You see that big stone?
Conclusion
I am about to log again, to see that noone claimed that land, and start building home. Seriously, get the game, and come join us, it's pretty cool that HIVE Minecraft is now a thing, and I know exactly where we can all lead it to, Minecraft is actually the perfect game for blockchain communities, the names sound like they were meant for each other.
TO BE CONTINUED
I get that reference.
If you are using 8G, I suggested another user push Minecraft to 6.8G and that helped a lot with the lag.
Hahaha nice, I guess we watch the same shows. wow wow wow 😁
Will look into it, I really think it's more because we play on wifi and LAN cables are just tight!
I never played minecraft but always thought that it looks really cool. I feel like it would be very addicting.
Hopefully we get to see your creations in your future posts.
You would love it dude! I always have a rule, not more than 2 hours of screentime in a row.
Though it's difficult to respect because we work on the pc all the time.
Yeah dude, I would probably make a few posts about it, and yes, very addictive. It's also an awesome educational tool with the kids. Cheers, thanks for passing by!
I've never been able to play games. Explain the objective to me please, is it just to kill time or something or is there a real strategy to it?
Sanbox games, are a creative medium, like drawing, or writing, or playing an instrument.
Is there a real strategy to art?
So you design your own game? It's an art game?
If it's too much to explain, don't trip.
Well it depends Minecraft is whatever you want it to be. There is a game to play, with a goal, which is to survive by crafting and building, mining, foraging and hunting animals, create civilization with villagers and an end game being going through a portal and fight a boss and shit. However, some peeps just enjoy the creative aspects of building, it's like making a puzzle
Homeboy. Eh don't tell anyone I told you this but I'm so not game had it not been for your explanation I would've continued confusing it for MineSweeper.
Hence I asked about strategy. lol That's funny.
Hahahah that's hilarious and I won't tell noone lol
looks like a great version of minecraft......i wonder whether there will ever be a P2E version
Probably, it's kind of inevitable come to think of it. Yeah it looks awesome! Thanks for the comment!
